Your other point regarding the transfer of staff with a "service" contract, that is now law, it came from the EU.

I don't think that any one councillor would get that chance, think anything like that would be done via the "Tender " process.
well as someone who knows plenty of people who work for the council i think i can safely say the wages etc will still be the same and they will still be doing all the councils work so no matter how cheap the other companies are they will not be doing work for the council as the new owners of the councils department have the contract

the dapartments that have not yet switched ownership will be doing so later this year and those departments will still be doing the work for the council for the forseeable future

take my word for it or dont
